Burroughs, known for his vivid, hallucinatory descriptions of life as a heroin junkie, was a driving, influential force whose work impacted the literary, music and film worlds.

Also includes Ghosts at Number 9 and Towers Open Fire, two rarely-seen, early 1960's, experimental film collaborations with Brion Gysin and Anthony Balch. 120 minutes.
